The house was clean and spacious and the pool an added bonus. The housekeeper was superb and provided lovely breakfasts and was friendly and welcoming. The only earring is the access road is steep and normal vehicles may have difficulty getting back up it. This shouldn’t detract from the property however and was only a minor issue. ##### Philip S.

Nous avons pû rejoindre Kandy ou même le jardin botanique par le bus qui passe non loin de la maison et tres régulièrement pour un prix défiant toute concurrence. La cerise sur le gâteau c'est la présence et la gentillesse de Soukoutoula qui nous a préparés des petits déjeuners et dîners fantastiques.

Bien entendu, un moyen de transport est necessaire pour visiter la ville et ses monuments mais surtout les environs superbes..Il s' 'avere que le proprietaire de la villa s' est attaché les services d'un driver de Tuk tuk aussi sur que bon guide...Dans ces conditions, et lebeau temps aidant, le séjour ne nous a jamais paru long...

La maison est à quelques kilomètres de Kandy, un emplacement idéal quand on souhaite un peu de repos après le tumulte de la ville. Nous avons largement utilisé le bus pour nous rendre à Kandy (15-25 roupies), ce qui permet de discuter tes facilement avec les habitants du coin. Le nec plus ultra reste la possibilité de manger sur place. La personne qui garde la maison, outre le fait d'être super accueillante, nous a concocté des petits plats locaux qui vous titillent les papilles ! On en redemande !!! ##### Olivier C.

The house is easily big enough for two families and we have spent many pleasant mornings and afternoon sitting on the verandah watching tropical birds, the monkeys and the local mongoose. The house has four floors. In the two weeks we've been here, the vast upper deck has become our reading and painting area and the spacious light-filled lower room our yoga studio. The bedrooms are airy and comfortable and there is TV and wifi in the common living area. Saku our cook and housekeeper cooks fabulous breakfasts and vegetarian curries and was happy to give us a cooking lesson. Jerome the driver is jovial and obliging - arranging trips by tuk tuk into Kandy and surrounds, or by van to Sygiria, Pollunaruwa or Haputale. Altogether a wonderful experience. We look forward to returning! ##### John C.

Les photos parlent d'Éole mêmes sur la qualité des lieux et du paysage aux alentours. Nuit calme. Le grand intérêt de la maison c'est Sakuntala qui s'occupe des repas, son fils a été adorable avec nos enfants. Et surtout Jérôme grâce à qui nous avons fais de très belles excursions, loin des foules, selon nos envies. Disponible, à l'écoute nous avons beaucoup échangé sur le pays, les métiers... gens. Il a de très bonnes qualités et une grande sensibilité pour faire le job de guide/chauffeur/accompagnateur. Vraiment à recommander, très bon contact. ##### ch D.

Beauté et fonctionnalité de la maison, qualité de l'accueil, situation, vue, gentillesse du service, tout a concouru a faire de notre séjour un merveilleux moment de détente et de plaisir. Transportés pendant toute la durée de notre séjour en tuk-tuk par Jérôme (en quelque sorte le collaborateur attitré des propriétaires) et son complice (nous étions 5 adultes, donc 2 engins), nous avons effectué la totalité des trajets à Kandy et alentours avec ce chauffeur et guide exceptionnel et attentif à nos moindres souhaits, y compris le défi de trouver un gâteau d'anniversaire et les bougies et autres accessoires fantaisistes... Renoncez à la voiture et ne ratez pas l'occasion de vous déplacer de cette façon. Même si cela peut s'avérer fatiguant sur les (très) longs trajets, les conseils et les astuces de Jérôme sont incontournables pour réussir chaque excursion et découvrir quelques joyaux hors des sentiers battus. Précision: Le trajet de la maison au centre de Kandy prend une dizaine de minutes en tuk-tuk, c'est le moyen le plus pratique. La maison, spacieuse, bien tenue, grande, offre de nombreuses possibilités de se détendre. En terrasse pour le plein soleil direct, dans les petits salons de lecture, dont un face au paysage grandiose de la vallée du Mahaweli, dans le salon principal face au mur de rocher où sont peintes de fidèles copies des princesses du rocher du lion de Sigyryia. Le service (à la demande) est assuré avec discrétion et efficacité par Sakunthala, qui cuisine parfaitement toute spécialité et ne se départit jamais de sa gentillesse et de sa disponibilité. Il n'y a quasiment pas de moustiques, quelques rares singes (fermer les fenêtres en cas d'absence), en résumé, une semaine idéale et le projet de renouveler notre séjour sur place dès que possible. Un plus important: les propriétaires sont toujours disponibles pour prodiguer de bons conseils et nous ont aidé à préparer notre voyage grâce à quelques conseils avisés. Une location à recommander sans hésiter. ##### michelle l.

Fuite dans salle de bain, mauvais fonctionnement chasse d eau. Dommage car très bel endroit qui mérite d être connu, proche du temple de la dent. Belle vue. Nous avons même profité de la piscine de l hôtel. La dame qui s occupe de la maison est discrète mais toujours là pour rendre service et vous concocte de bons petits plats. Aucun bruit la nuit appréciable. ##### nathalie m.

Jérome notre guide a été également très efficace et nous avons apprécié qu''il nous montre des choses hors des sentiers battus, nous recommandons vivement cette location" ##### Sandrine l. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Avani Kalutara Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalutara-Hotels-Avani-Kalutara-Resort.h4031708.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bentota Beach – Signature Selection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bentota-Beach.h36466861.Hotel-Information) > > [Kahanda Kanda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angulugaha-Hotels-Kahanda-Kanda.h11263998.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Pandanus Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Induruwa-Hotels-Pandanus-Beach-Resort-Spa.h11289546.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeduwa-Katunayake-Hotels-Vivanta-Colombo.h526350.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Crown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-The-Golden-Crown-Hotel.h19397949.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Grand Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-Le-Grand-Galle-By-Asia-Leisure.h24010679.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fortress Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-The-Fortress-Resort-Spa.h7821441.Hotel-Information) > > [Earl's Regency](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Earls-Regency.h1523191.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Bentota Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Taj-Bentota-Resort-Spa.h581365.Hotel-Information) > > [go camping](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Go-Camping.h23256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lodge.h1854476.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Ridge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Golden-Ridge-Hotel.h29024680.Hotel-Information) > > [Ceylon Tea Trails - Relais and Chateaux - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwood-Hotels-Ceylon-Tea-Trails.h4045356.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westbury Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Westbury-Palace.h48402950.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sun House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-The-Sun-House.h15677263.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Beach Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Amaya-Beach-Pasikudah.h6780993.Hotel-Information) > > [Aliya Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Avudangawa-Hotels-Aliya-Resort-Spa.h9849536.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bey Beruwala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beruwala-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bey-Beruwala.h8256226.Hotel-Information) > > [Habarana Village by Cinnamon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Habarana-Village-By-Cinnamon.h4031747.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Siyam Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Sun-Siyam-Pasikudah.h9272270.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sigiriya-Hotels-Hotel-Sigiriya.h1609730.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tangalle-Hotels-Anantara-Peace-Haven-Tangalle-Resort.h11229814.Hotel-Information) > > [W15 Weligama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-W15.h11560777.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Kosgoda Turtle Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kosgoda-Hotels-Sheraton-Kosgoda-Turtle-Beach-Resort.h48743974.Hotel-Information) > > [Maalu Maalu Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Maalu-Maalu-Resort-Spa.h6504916.Hotel-Information)
